This article draws attention to the most important aspects of the theme of anger as found in contemporary reflections on the spiritual life. The issues discussed are questions of terminology, the problem of the nature of anger, and the importance of anger within Christian spiritual life. The reality of anger as a destructive force raises the question of how to counter it: What is a wise strategy for reducing its destructive power? What possible correctives or remedies are also in accordance with genuine Christian spirituality? In contrast, when anger is given a positive interpretation (“righteous/holy anger”), the article presents certain conditions or criteria that can help clarify when it is possible to talk about the positive role of anger in Christian spirituality.

Artykuł zwraca uwagę na wybrane aspekty gniewu we współczesnej refleksji nad życiem duchowym. Poruszone są kwestie terminologiczne, problem natury gniewu oraz znaczenie gniewu dla chrześcijańskiego życia duchowego. Gniew jako siła destrukcyjna budzi pytanie o sposoby mądrej, zgodnej z duchowością chrześcijańską strategii lub wypracowania środków zaradczych mających na celu obniżenie jego destrukcyjnej siły. Z kolei w interpretacji pozytywnej („gniew słuszny/święty”) ważne są warunki pozwalające doprecyzować, kiedy rzeczywiście można mówić o pozytywnej roli gniewu w duchowości chrześcijańskiej.

This article raises issues surrounding the theology of spirituality as a relatively new theological focus. It argues that, faced with a changing world and numerous new (or perceived as new) phenomena, the theology of spirituality, as a scholarly area examining spiritual experience, is becoming a branch of theological research of increasing importance. The first part of this article focuses on the ever-growing areas of interest found within the theology of spirituality, a growth stemming from the core of the field itself (agere sequitur esse). The second part emphasizes the newer areas of interest within the theology of spirituality. These new horizons arise from the pluralism of theology itself and the criteria used in differentiating theological disciplines, such as ethno-geographic, doctrinal, and ascetic-practical concerns. In particular, amid a fast-changing world in which information and mutual contact have become incredibly accessible, the interpenetration of cultures and traditions can not only be of great value but also carry the dangers of a chaotic eclecticism. As this accessibility becomes ever easier and more pervasive, contemporary human beings can thus become confused, not only about their worldviews but also concerning their spiritual and religious beliefs. Thus, research into the theology of spirituality is becoming increasingly more important.

Artykuł jest relacją z sympozjum naukowego zorganizowanego przez Polskie Stowarzyszenie Teologów Duchowości nt. Życie duchowe w odrodzonej Polsce. Obchodzone w 2018 roku stulecie odzyskania niepodległości przez Polskę stanowi okazję do spojrzenia na ten okres historii Ojczyzny przez pryzmat teologii duchowości. Liczne postacie świętych i błogosławionych tego okresu, jak również bogactwo publikacji na temat teologii duchowości, ze szczególnym podkreśleniem tematów charakterystycznych dla duchowości polskiej, w pełni uzasadniają używanie nazwy: polska teologia duchowości.

The article is the report from the scientific symposium organised by the Association of the Polish Theologians of Spirituality of the theme: Spiritual life in reborn Poland. This year Poland will be celebrating the centenary of the regaining of its independence. It becomes a great occasion to look at that period of history from the perspective of the theology of spirituality. Numerous figures of saints and blessed from that period of history as well as richness of various publications in the topic of theology of spirituality, with special underlining of the subjects characteristic for the Polish spirituality fully justify the using of the name Polish theology of spirituality.

The development of theology over the centuries of the Church’s life and activity is accomplished through publications. They express the theologians’ positions, opinions and hypotheses. Among Polish theological journals, “Collectanea Theologica”, which has its origins in Lviv (“Przegląd Teologiczny”), plays a special role. Though it is connected with the Warsaw theological environment, it not only covers Poland but also goes beyond its borders, as evidenced by the foreign publications and foreign-language authors. Undoubtedly, this journal has become a very serious and rich source of and platform for the development of the theology of spirituality. Its existence is connected with the independence of this branch of the theology, and therefore from the beginning of its existence we find in the journal highly valuable and serious materials on spirituality.The analysis of the publications, which are the result of research conducted over a hundred years, allows us to conclude that we are dealing with an unusual and multidirectional wealth. It should be stated that the publications present an interdisciplinary nature of the research conducted. The study outlines the main directions of the development of the theology of spirituality and their documentation. It can be said that these publications reflect theological trends in the universal Church. Both the documents of the Church and of the popes as well as the events became an inspiration for the authors. Historical, social and even political events were not without their significance and influence. Of particular importance is the development of native Polish theology, having its own specificity and contributing richly to the life of the whole universal Church. We define such a achievement as the “Polish school of spirituality”.
